The download page says: "Or you can download the binary archive for a release and unpack it into the same directory structure as the source.

It's not broken for everyone, as the Hudson and Gump builds work OK. > Suggestion: > make all project dependencies easily available as > jakarta-jmeter-2.4_src-dependencies.zip No point - they are all in the bin archive anyway. > and replace target download_jars to build_dependencies_zip to help one > in charge for project release build. > > If I make jakarta-jmeter-2.4_src-dependencies.zip file to resolve > build ugly error > ".\lib\api does not exist."" how can I submit it to the project? Patches are submitted via Bugzilla.
